1932: Playing with the Japanese Communist Party with a doll

"From today on, the guarding of the imperial palace will be under the charge of Brigade Commander Wang Yong!"

"Who's for? Who's against?"

211 I have never fought such a wealthy war

After briefly dealing with the scoundrels inside and outside the palace, UMP40 led Chen Geng to pay a customary visit to Wanrong, who was completely unconcerned with government affairs, and then led him out of the "imperial palace." Actually, this isn't the imperial palace; the real one is in Changchun. But because it's been a bit chaotic lately and construction hasn't been completed yet, and Wanrong needs to take care of her pregnancy, we simply moved here.

"So my future work focus will actually be mainly in Changchun?"

"No, that's up to you. You belong to the Independent 129th Division, but currently it's just the 386th Brigade, essentially a mobile unit. As long as you report ahead, you can go anywhere..." UMP40 thought for a moment and continued:

"It's actually okay not to report it, but that would easily arouse suspicion and anxiety, so it's not recommended." "...Do I have such broad authority? The Japanese really won't..."

"Don't worry, at least in Shenyang, there won't be any problems... Here..."

UMP40 casually saluted several Japanese soldiers who were saluting her, then pursed her lips:

"Look, that's the Kwantung Army's Independent Garrison. They're currently responsible for the safety of the Shenyang Imperial Palace. Once you gain control of your 386th Brigade, you'll assign someone you trust to take charge."

"...Then where are the men and equipment of my 386th Brigade?" "Follow me."

The two chatted as they drove towards the northern suburbs of Fengtian, arriving at a place—one most might not recognize at first glance, but the name would definitely sound familiar—Beidaying. The Japanese lieutenant colonel guarding the area spotted Ma Shiling's black limousine from afar (I'm going to play this joke to death), quickly descended from the tower, and trotted over to her.

"Ms. Fujiwara! Long time no see!"

"Long time no see, Lieutenant Colonel Shimamoto. How are you doing lately?" "Hehe..."

Lieutenant Colonel Shoichi Shimamoto, commander of the Second Battalion of the Independent Garrison, said with a wry smile:

"What's there to talk about? I'm going back to my country soon... It's a pity that I can't continue to serve Your Highness." There was a hint of dejection in his words.

Come to think of it, no one would be happy if they were dragged down by the Kwantung Army's high-ranking officials and the useless bastards of the Second Division.

"Haha, Lieutenant Colonel Shimamoto, don't be too disappointed. His Highness will be arriving in Manchuria soon. By then, it's hard to say how things will develop!"

".…."

The lieutenant colonel was taken aback and said cautiously:

"You mean..."

"Haha, I didn't say anything." "I understand!"

Shimamoto Shoichi thought he understood everything and was overjoyed. He patted his chest and promised, "I will definitely fulfill my duties! I swear allegiance to Your Highness until death!"

"Alright, alright, let's save these things for when Your Highness comes. Let's finish my business first!" "Hai! Oh, by the way, I forgot to ask you, why did you come here today..."

"this..."

UMP40 hooked her finger at Chen Geng behind her:

"Here, this is the new Brigade Commander Wang from the 386th Brigade of the 129th Independent Division of Manchukuo. I brought him here today to pick out some equipment." "This..."

The Japanese lieutenant colonel showed obvious hesitation and looked at Chen Geng. The latter's heart tightened, and then he heard UMP40 casually say: "He is the person chosen by His Highness himself, and he will also be the main force for suppressing bandits in Manchukuo in the future... Have you forgotten what His Highness said?" "Yes! I understand!"

Upon hearing the words "Your Highness" and "the main force of the Manchurian Bandit Suppression Army," the lieutenant colonel immediately threw away all his concerns: "I will take you and this... this brigade commander in right away!"

As he spoke, he summoned a former Northeastern Army jeep and a group of soldiers, and brought UMP40 and Chen Geng to the warehouse complex where weapons and equipment were stored at Beidaying. He then opened all the doors and said, "All the Chinese military equipment that hasn't been shipped out yet is here. Miss Fujiwara, you can take as much as you like."

"Okay, go ahead and get busy! We'll tell you when we've picked something."

"Hi!"

After the Japanese lieutenant colonel left, Chen Geng carefully asked: "What are you talking about?"

"You have to learn Japanese as soon as possible so that you can integrate into this place as quickly as possible...Okay, from now on, when you are out there, just call me Miss Fujiwara or Ms. Fujiwara." "Ms. Fujiwara..."

"That's right. You'll learn more about what's going on later." UMP40 pointed to the dozens of massive war preparation warehouses in front of them.

"Okay, first, equip your troops. You can pick and choose anything here. Take as much as you want."

"Just pick one?"

"Pick any." "Pick any?" "Pick any."

Chen Geng took a deep breath and cast his gaze on the mountain of equipment.

Just as far as the eye can see, you can clearly see a large number of infantry guns, rifles, pistols, machine guns, armored vehicles and even tanks! This is indeed the case.

When the "918 Incident" occurred, how many weapons and equipment were there in the Northeast Army's material storage warehouse in Shenyang, the first to be attacked?

There were 3019 mortars and artillery of various calibers, 26 tanks and armored vehicles, 5864 machine guns of various types, 118206 rifles and pistols of various types, and so much ammunition that the Japanese army has not been able to complete the statistics to this day... And what about the Japanese army at that time?

On that day, the Japanese Army's Second Independent Garrison Battalion (the unit where Shimamoto Masaichi was stationed) that attacked Beidaying consisted of over 600 soldiers, equipped only with rifles, machine guns, and other light weapons.

The only two large-caliber artillery pieces were secretly delivered just before the incident. Not only were the shells scarce, but a considerable number had forgotten to install fuses, so most of them were duds, completely ineffective. Then, relying on these crude equipment, the Japanese army easily captured Zhang Xueliang's Northeast Army's Beidaying at the cost of 24 casualties, annihilating the nearly 10,000 defenders...

All I can say is, one is a loser, and the other is not only a loser but also a fucking coward.

By the way, before the outbreak of the "September 918th Incident", the cultivated land area in the entire Northeast had increased to 2.38 million mu, the annual output of crops was close to 2000 million tons, and the population exceeded 3500 million. However, such huge and rich resources fell into the hands of the Japanese "overnight".

This shows that no matter how good the equipment, land, or finances are, they are no better than firewood in the hands of a worthless person who dares not even resist. It is better to give these things to those who are more capable of fighting.

After confirming with UMP40 again and again, Chen Geng pretended to pounce on those black and hard things like crazy, caressing them left and right as if he was hugging his own wife, and even licking them with his tongue, as if he was performing some strange religious ritual.

my darling!

my darling!

mine!

baby!

baby!

mine!

Hey hey hey hey hey...My precious!!!

"this is..."

"Imitation of the Japanese Taisho 11-year model 37mm flat-fire cannon."

"I want 10... no, 40!" "Okay."

"What about this?"

"Imitation of the Japanese Type 38 75mm field gun." "I want 2...30 of them!"

"can."

“This one…”

After a thorough inventory and request, Chen Geng obtained equipment for his "386th Brigade" which had not yet been seen, which would drive the Red Army crazy if they knew about it:

There were 200 pieces of various types of light and heavy artillery (including mortars), 60 heavy machine guns, 40 light machine guns, 10000 rifles, 4000 pistols, and even 10 Renault FT17 tanks! Even UMP40 couldn't help but complain in his heart:

Are you going to arm a 386th brigade or a 386th corps?

You have to know that before the incident, the Northeast Army had three regiments under one brigade, and each regiment generally only had 6 mortars, 4 flat-fire cannons, and 120 light and heavy machine guns! Ah... Compared with the general equipment of the Central Red Army mentioned by 45, the words "only" and "only" really need to be put in quotation marks!

As for Chen Geng himself, he was laughing so hard that his back teeth were no longer visible.

I have been in the army for more than ten years, and I have never fought such a prosperous battle!

If the Red Army comrades knew about this, they would probably be drooling with envy, hahahahahahaha... If the 12th Red Army Division had this kind of equipment, I'd dare to fight all the way to Tokyo!!

Thinking of this, Chen Geng's face gradually darkened again.

Such good equipment was handed over to the Japanese without a single shot being fired. Many weapons were not even unpacked and were still in brand new condition... Sigh...

The reactionary and traitorous Nationalist government, the decadent and backward warlords, and the soldiers without any faith... When Chen Geng thought of this, he began to worry about another problem: the equipment was there, but what about the people?

I can't possibly go to war alone carrying hundreds of cannons, right?

Therefore, we need a group of Red Army soldiers who are brave, skilled in fighting, and have firm beliefs. But there are obviously no such people here, so we can only slowly absorb and transform them.

If you think about it, you will know that this kind of work is very difficult.

You have to know that Chen Geng came alone and didn't bring any Red Army soldiers with him.

"Comrade Shi Ling, what is the personnel composition of the 386th Brigade you gave me?" "Huh? No one!"

"No...no one? What do you mean?"

"It means there's no one, and you have to recruit people from scratch."

"

Chen Geng's eyes widened, then narrowed again. "Then... can I recruit only Communist Party members?"

How come you are the same as Zhao Ziqi...

"We have long said that we do not interfere in any internal decisions of the Chinese Communist Party. You can do whatever you see fit."

...Then please help me contact the Central Soviet Area and the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Area. I need some cadres with firm stances and quick minds to come and help me. " "I understand. You can draw up a list in advance and I'll send it to you later."

"Okay, thank you so much..."

Alright, there's no need to express gratitude to one another. We're helping you for the sake of the Chinese revolution, for the future of the Chinese people, and for the realization of communism, not for your gratitude or reward.

This is the truth.

Regardless of what the commander thinks, what the humanoids need is indeed a communist future.

Chen Geng took a deep breath.

Even though he was a so-called "Soviet-educated" person, he deeply felt the difference between the Soviets and the "World Revolutionary Party".

To be fair and impartial, a small number of Soviet people did support the Chinese revolution with "internationalist" ideas, seeking nothing in return. However, the majority of people and the top brass of the CPSU certainly had certain political and economic needs.

But what about the Shih-kuo Party?

At least so far, no one in the entire CCP feels that they are asking for anything.

This kind of comrade is truly worthy of respect and approach...

212 The Communist Party of China's Great Manchuria Empire Party Committee was officially established!

It was already evening when they finished picking out the equipment. After learning about the amount of equipment requested by "Brigade Commander Wang", Lieutenant Colonel Shimamoto couldn't help but show a look of surprise and vigilance; even the regular Japanese divisions didn't have such luxury.

But UMP40 dismissed him with just one sentence:

"This is His Highness's request. He wants to experiment with a brand new unit that can not only adapt to the Chinese battlefield, but also cope with the struggle against the European and American monsters." "Understood! Heavy Assault Group! !"

"Uh... that's a good name..."

"Thank you for the compliment, Ms. Fujiwara!"

"You're welcome. Your Highness has seen your achievements and efforts. Work hard and you will have a bright future!" "Hi!"

After dismissing the agitated Shimamoto Shoichi with a few words, UMP40 took Chen Kang back to the "Imperial Palace". At this moment, Zhao Ziqi, who had been notified long ago, also arrived in Shenyang.

Thus, all the Chinese Communist Party members serving in the government agencies of the Great Manchuria Empire were present. Comrade Zhao Ziqi, Political Secretary of the State Council of the Great Manchuria Empire and Director of the National Highway Construction and Maintenance Bureau of the Ministry of Construction; Comrade Chen P, Commander of the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division of the Great Manchuria Imperial Army and Captain of the Imperial Palace Guard;

Comrade He Baozhen, the first female official of the Imperial Household Department of the Great Manchuria Empire;

Comrade Wang Genying, Director of Logistics for the Imperial Household Department of the Great Manchuria Empire...

The above four people are all absolutely talented among the Chinese at this time. With such elites, the future of the Great Manchuria Empire is really bright... "Okay, now that your people are here, I will leave first. Don't worry, no one will come here."

"Um...Comrade Ma Shiling, you can..."

"No need. You have some things to say that I can't be around to hear. You should just chat on your own!" UMP40 smiled and closed the door.

The four CCP members and the two couples looked at each other for a while, and it was Chen Yi who smiled first: "Comrade Zhao Ziqi, after parting in Shanghai, we are now working together again."

"yes..."

"Comrade Baozhen..."

"Comrade Geun-young..."

They were all straightforward people. After a brief greeting, they immediately got straight to the point and began to introduce what they had learned to each other.

"...The Seventh Central Committee and the Central Political Bureau have been elected...The Party is slowly correcting Wang Ming's previous mistakes of 'Left' adventurism and sending people to report to the Communist International..."...Zhang Guotao has been placed under house arrest...Comrade Li Desheng has gone to the Hubei-Henan-Anhui base area...is currently serving...organized...Before I leave..."

"And all along my journey..."

Chen Ying truthfully told Zhao Ziqi what he knew about the Central Soviet Area and the Hubei-Henan-Anhui Soviet Area. After listening, Zhao Ziqi nodded slightly:

"Well, it's pretty much the same as what Comrade Ma Shiling of the Shih Chien Revolutionary Party told me..." "Oh? You already know that?"

Chen Ying frowned:

"Many things just happened, how come you..."
